BACKGROUND ART

Presently, “Inter-band Carrier Aggregation (hereinafter, referred to as CA)” is being examined by the Development Conference of Long Term Evolution (hereinafter, referred to as LTE) Specifications.

As shown in FIG. 22, a radio configuration for implementing a conventional “Downlink Inter-band CA” for downlink includes a duplexer #A for switching transmission and reception in a band #A, a duplexer #B for switching transmission and reception in a band #B, and a diplexer for accommodating the duplexer #A and the duplexer #B.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

In a radio configuration for implementing a conventional FDD mobile communication system, a duplexer is inserted into a port of the UE to block a leakage from an uplink bandwidth to a downlink bandwidth in a same band.

In the “Downlink Inter-band CA”, since the UE transmits signal on a certain bandwidth while receiving signal from multiple bandwidths, insertion of a diplexer has been examined in order to prevent the uplink signal from leaking into and interfering with another bandwidth.

For example, as shown in FIG. 22, duplexers #A/#B are inserted to block leakages of signal from uplink bandwidths to downlink bandwidths in bands #A/#B (indicated with solid lines in FIG. 22).

In addition, a leakage of signal from an uplink bandwidth in the band #A to a downlink bandwidth in the band #B (indicated with a broken line in FIG. 22) is blocked by a diplexer inserted, as well.

Here, “REFSENS” and the like are provided in LTE (Release 8) to reduce influence of a signal leakage via the duplexer from an uplink bandwidth to a downlink bandwidth in a same band.

However, as for a signal leakage via the diplexer from an uplink bandwidth to a downlink bandwidth in different band, no measures have been taken against a case where signals are generated from multiple uplink bandwidths.

In particular, there are problems such as the transmission spurious emission caused by those signals, deterioration of the receiving sensitivity, and decrease of the transmission power.

In view of the foregoing problems, an objective of the present invention is to provide a mobile communication method, a radio base station, and a mobile station which are capable of lowering the blocking performance capability of a diplexer usually needed to block a leakage from the uplink bandwidth to the downlink bandwidth in the uplink CA, and owing to this effect, improving the transmission loss of the diplexer and the communication quality.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION Mobile Communication System According to First Embodiment of Present Invention

A mobile communication system according to a first embodiment of the present invention is described with reference to FIGS. 1 to 21.

The mobile communication system according to this embodiment supports LTE-Advanced, and is configured to perform at least one of “Inter-band CA (DL/UL)” and “Intra-band CA (DL/UL)”.

As shown in FIG. 1, the mobile communication system according to this embodiment includes a radio base station eNB#1 configured to manage a cell #1, and a radio base station eNB#2 configured to manage a cell #2 in a coverage area of the cell #1.

Here, the cell #1 denotes a cell (for example, a macro cell) operated by a frequency carrier in a coverage band (for example, a band #A) supporting a wide area, and the cell #2 denotes a cell (for example, a pico cell) operated by a frequency carrier in a capacity band (for example, a band #B) for improving the throughput in a hot spot.

In an example shown in FIG. 1, it is assumed that the cell #1 is set as “Pcell (Primary Cell) for the mobile station UE, and the cell #2 is set and activated as “Scell (Secondary Cell)” for the mobile station UE.

As shown in FIG. 2, the mobile station UE according to this embodiment includes a management unit 11, a receiver unit 13, and a transmitter unit 12.

The management unit 11 is configured to manage capability information of the mobile station UE. For example, the management unit 11 is configured to manage simultaneous transmission capability information as one kind of the capability information of the mobile station UE.

Here, the simultaneous transmission capability information may be information indicating whether or not the mobile station UE is able to transmit uplink data signal via multiple carriers in multiple bands within a same sub-frame in performing uplink CA, or may be information indicating whether or not the mobile station UE is able to ensure a predetermined communication quality when transmitting uplink data signal via multiple carriers in multiple bands within a same sub-frame in performing uplink CA.

In this specification, “information indicating whether or not the mobile station UE is able to transmit uplink data signal via multiple carriers in multiple bands within a same sub-frame in performing uplink CA” has the same meaning as “information indicating whether or not the mobile station UE is unable to transmit uplink data signal unless using one or more carriers in one band within a same sub-frame in performing uplink CA”.

As shown in FIG. 18, the transmitter unit 12 may be configured to transmit the simultaneous transmission capability information via “simultaneousTx-r11” and “simultaneousRx-r11” in “CA-MIMO-Parameters-r11” in “BandParameters-r11” in “supportedCombinationParameters-r11” in “SupportedBandCombination-r11” in “RF-Parameters-v11xy” in “UE-EUTRA-Capability-v11xy-IEs” in “UE-EUTRA-Capability”.

In this case, for each CAbandClass by using “simultaneousTx-r11”, the transmitter unit 12 notifies of whether or not the mobile station UE is able to transmit uplink data signal via multiple carriers transmitted from multiple antennas within a same sub-frame in performing uplink CA (or, whether or not the mobile station UE is able to ensure the predetermined communication quality when transmitting uplink data signal via multiple carriers transmitted from multiple antennas within a same sub-frame in performing uplink CA). In addition, for each CAbandClass by using “simultaneousRx-r11”, the transmitter unit 12 notifies of whether or not the mobile station UE is able to receive downlink data signal via multiple carriers transmitted from multiple antennas within a same sub-frame in performing downlink CA (or, whether or not the mobile station UE is able to ensure the predetermined communication quality when receiving downlink data signal via multiple carriers transmitted from multiple antennas within a same sub-frame in performing downlink CA).

Furthermore, information indicating whether or not the mobile station UE is able to receive downlink data signal via multiple carriers in multiple bands within a same sub-frame in performing downlink CA (or, whether or not the mobile station UE is able to ensure the predetermined communication quality when receiving downlink data signal via multiple carriers in multiple bands within a same sub-frame in performing downlink CA) may be notified only when the mobile station UE (or radio base station eNB) supports “Cross Carrier Scheduling”.

Alternatively, information indicating whether or not the mobile station UE is able to receive downlink data signal via multiple carriers transmitted from multiple antennas within a same sub-frame in performing downlink CA (or, whether or not the mobile station UE is able to ensure the predetermined communication quality when receiving downlink data signal via multiple carriers transmitted from multiple antennas within a same sub-frame in performing downlink CA) may be notified only when the mobile station UE (or radio base station eNB) supports “Cross Carrier Scheduling”.

Here, the receiver unit 13 and the transmitter unit 12 of the mobile station UE may be configured to include a diplexer and a duplexer, as shown in FIG. 22.

As shown in FIG. 19, the radio base station eNB includes a receiver unit 21, a management unit 22, a scheduling unit 23, and a transmitter unit 24.

The receiver unit 21 is configured to receive various signals transmitted by the mobile station UE.

For example, the receiver unit 21 may be configured to receive, from the mobile station US, the above-mentioned simultaneous transmission capability information as one kind of the capability information of the mobile station UE.

The management unit 22 is configured to manage the capability information of the mobile station UE. For example, the management unit 22 may be configured to manage the above-mentioned simultaneous transmission capability information as one kind of the capability information of the mobile station UE.

The scheduling unit 23 is configured to perform the scheduling processing for the mobile station UE.

For example, the scheduling unit 23 may be configured to perform the scheduling processing for the mobile station UE based on the capability information (above-mentioned simultaneous transmission capability information) of the mobile station UE managed by the management unit 22.

Specifically, as shown in FIG. 20, the scheduling unit may be configured to perform scheduling such that a scheduling target mobile station UE will not transmit uplink data signal via multiple carriers in multiple bands within a same sub-frame in performing uplink CA, if the mobile station UE is unable to transmit uplink data signal via multiple carriers in multiple bands within a same sub-frame in performing uplink CA (that is, if the mobile station UE is unable to transmit uplink data signal unless using one or more carriers in one band within a same sub-frame in performing uplink CA), or if the mobile station UE is unable to ensure the predetermined communication quality when transmitting uplink data signal via multiple carriers in multiple bands within a same sub-frame in performing uplink CA (that is, if the mobile station UE is unable to ensure the predetermined communication quality unless transmitting uplink data signal via one or more carriers in one band within a same sub-frame in performing uplink CA).

In this case, in an example shown in FIG. 20, the scheduling unit 23 may be configured to perform scheduling such that the mobile station UE will avoid transmission of uplink data signal via CC #1 (or, CC #2) in the band #A and via CC #3 in the band #B within a same sub-frame in performing uplink CA.

However, even in this case, the scheduling unit 23 may perform scheduling such that the mobile station UE will transmit uplink data signal via CC #1 and CC #2 in the same band #A within a same sub-frame in performing uplink CA.

Alternatively, as shown in FIG. 21, the scheduling unit 23 may be configured to perform scheduling such that the scheduling target mobile station UE will not transmit uplink data signal via multiple carriers transmitted from multiple antennas within a same sub-frame in performing uplink CA, if the mobile station UE is unable to transmit uplink data signal via multiple carriers transmitted from multiple antennas within a same sub-frame in performing uplink CA (that is, if the mobile station UE is unable to transmit uplink data signal unless using one or more carriers transmitted from a single antenna within a same sub-frame in performing uplink CA), or if the mobile station UE is unable to ensure the predetermined communication quality when transmitting uplink data signal via multiple carriers transmitted from multiple antennas within a same sub-frame in performing uplink CA (that is, if the mobile station UE is unable to ensure the predetermined communication quality unless transmitting uplink data signal via one or more carriers transmitted from a single antenna within a same sub-frame in performing uplink CA).

In this case, in an example shown in FIG. 21, the scheduling unit 23 may be configured to perform scheduling such that the mobile station UE will avoid transmission of uplink data signal via CC #1 in the band #A transmitted from an antenna (RF) #1 and CC #2 (or CC #3) in the band #A transmitted from an antenna (RF) #2 within a same sub-frame in performing uplink CA.

However, even in this case, the scheduling unit 23 may perform scheduling such that the mobile station UE will transmit uplink data signal via CC #2 and CC #3 in the band #A transmitted through a same antenna (RF) within a same sub-frame in performing uplink CA.

The transmitter unit 24 is configured to transmit various kinds of signal to the mobile station UE.

For example, the transmitter unit 24 may be configured to transmit the scheduling signal to the mobile station UE.

Here, a mobile station UE unable to transmit uplink data signal via multiple carriers in multiple bands within a same sub-frame in performing uplink CA as described above may have a function of transmitting only CCs in the same band as a CC through which important signal is transmitted, when the radio base station eNB erroneously allocates multiple CCs to the mobile station UE.

Alternatively, a mobile station UE unable to transmit uplink data signal via multiple carriers transmitted from multiple antennas within a same sub-frame in performing uplink CA as described above may have a function of transmitting only CCs transmitted from the same antenna as a CC through which important signal is transmitted, when the radio base station eNB erroneously allocates multiple CCs to the mobile station UE.

For example, since the PUCCH is signal having significance higher than the PUSCH, the mobile station UE may have a function of performing transmission only in an uplink band to which the PUCCH is allocated, in preference to the PUCCH.

In the above case, the simultaneous transmission is performed and the communication quality in this transmission may deteriorate significantly. However, such deterioration does not matter.

According to embodiments of the present invention, the mobile station UE is configured to transmit the above-mentioned simultaneous transmission capability information to the radio base station eNB, and the radio base station eNB is configured to perform scheduling based on the simultaneous transmission capability information. In such a configuration, since transmission is not made within a same sub-frame, leakage from an uplink bandwidth to a downlink bandwidth in different bands can be blocked by a simple diplexer. Consequently, communication with a communication capability set to use of a single uplink bandwidth can be implemented.
